My true pleasure as a workers' compensation attorney is knowing that ... when an injured worker or their family comes to us for help, I can .. present their strongest case for benefits.

    RALEIGH, NC, August 18, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Raleigh personal injury and disability law firm Hardison & Cochran, Attorneys at Law, announced today that its managing partner, Benjamin T. Cochran, has been named by his peers as one of the top workers' compensation lawyers in the country.

Cochran, a Board Certified Specialist in North Carolina Workers' Compensation Law, has been named to The Best Lawyers in America 2016 in the "Workers' Compensation Law - Claimants" practice area. It is the 22nd edition of the well-respected publication's peer-reviewed rankings.

Cochran was also listed in The Best Lawyers in America in the field of Workers' Compensation - Claimants in 2014 and 2015.

As a workers' compensation claimants' attorney, Cochran helps workers who have suffered occupational injuries or illnesses obtain workers' compensation benefits. Workers' compensation, a state-administered insurance program, is a complex program meant to pay the medical costs of injured workers and replace a portion of lost income after a work-related accident or illness. Many deserving applicants are improperly denied benefits or awarded improper benefits.

Mr. Cochran and the legal team at Hardison & Cochran help injured workers prepare claim applications, appeal adverse decisions by the administrating body, or gather medical evidence to obtain benefits or retain benefits previously awarded.

"My true pleasure as a workers' compensation attorney is knowing that I understand North Carolina's workers' comp program and its laws, and that when an injured worker or their family comes to us for help, I can move forward fully confident that I will present their strongest case for benefits," Cochran said.

Best Lawyers' peer-reviewed listings debuted in 1983 and are now published in almost 70 countries around the world. The Best Lawyers selection process is designed to obtain a consensus opinion from among leading lawyers within the same geographical and legal practice areas through a survey about the professional abilities of their colleagues.

In 2010, Best Lawyers partnered with U.S. News & World Report, which is known for its rankings of colleges, universities and public schools, to rank law firms in the United States.

Hardison & Cochran pursues workers' compensation, Social Security Disability, personal injury and wrongful death cases in North Carolina. Hardison & Cochran was named among the "Best Law Firms" in the 2015 edition of U.S. News - Best Lawyers.
